[Sagar Deshmukh](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/author/sagar0204.md) 16 September 2022 · 2 min read English [Español](https://www.ticketfairy.com/es/word/2022/09/16/el-festival-locus-regresara-el-proximo-ano) *After the success of its debut Tulum edition early this year, the drum & bass experience in paradise is set to make a return during March 2023.* While the drum & bass fraternity is still immersed in the euphoria of the SUNANDBASS Festival which made its return to its spiritual home after two long years, we now have the LOCUS Festival coming in with its second edition in March 2023. [LOCUS](https://www.facebook.com/locus)has been a mainstay in drum & bass, hosting carefully curated parties with the most stellar line ups for over two decades. Tulum is historically known for its techno and house prowess. The shiny sands and blue-clad beaches of the exotic destination had never experienced the pulsating frequencies of drum & bass. In came the founders of [Ticket Fairy](https://ticketfairy.com/), Ritesh Patel aka [Rit Locus](https://www.instagram.com/ritlocus/), and [Jigar Patel](https://www.instagram.com/thisisjig/) with a plan, and announced the biggest drum & bass line-up North & Latin America had ever witnessed.
